Silver Scurf Pea

These silver plants stand out in the prairie green.  Taken as a whole they seem chaotic but on closer inspection are elegant in their flowing lines.  Another name is Psoralea (think psoriasis, a scaly skin disease).  I have never seen the blue flower entirely open, maybe next year.  Taken at Kasota Prairie SNA, Nicollet County, MN.
